I hope you find our website useful and informative. The intention is to give you a flavour of what SJB is like as a school and community.

SJB is a Roman Catholic Comprehensive School for students aged 11 – 18. It is a very popular school and is highly regarded both academically and socially. It is also a very happy school and parents know that if their children come here they will be joining a strong, caring community where everyone can be sure of support and encouragement at all times.

Our mission is to be a Catholic School where every individual is highly valued and where care and concern for others is central to our work. All our students are expected to achieve their full potential and become equipped for adult life. At SJB everything we do is guided by the Gospel values.

Our aim is simple – we want to be the best school in the country! By this we mean that all our students will receive a better education here than they would at any other establishment. To achieve this we have to keep focused on our core purpose of ‘improving the quality of the education we provide’ and ensure we all work together to that end as students, staff and parents.
